The Mad Kpt Patrol Logs (very pic heavy)
 

Well i have final found time to play on my career install of GWX. I have been neglected my career while i have been having a ball playing many Mp games.
My First patrol went well sinking just over 20,000t and i had three hit on the HMS Rodney. But alas the DD's detected me and held me down why the convoy made good there escape. I tryed for 3 days to find the convoy again with no luck what so ever.
Here are a list of my victims on that First patrol.

nice screenies :) Good luck in your future patrols Herr Kapitan :)

Great pics, mate! But the first two ar photoshopped, right?

Too bad you dont have pics of the famous "truck-sinking"...:rotfl::rotfl:

Unusual patrol report for you Chris
No destroyers ?
And no friendly subs either :rotfl:

@ Stabiz
That coming from yourself means alot:up: Yep the first two are photoshoped a bit.;)
@ Seth
I will try and receate the truck sinking at some point if i live long enough:arrgh!:

@ BBW
Dont you worry mate i will start to play with the DD's soon just finding my feet want to try and go through the war with this career if i can. But im sure at some point i will get a little cocky and play my usual mad games with DD's :arrgh!:
Still to find a friendly wolfpack so far so still to sink a friendly yet:rotfl:
Thats why they call me the Mad Kpt:up:

Nice pics.

Hello there mr chris
What your realism settings? If its 100% the results is very good mate :up:

Hi there the only things i dont have ticked are the manual TDC and the external cam i just can't play without the cam:oops: I only use it for taking screens though not to cheat.:up:

Agree! I play at 100%, but i use the cam...so it isnt really 100%...:oops: I dont cheat, too much self dicipline, but you never know when a good photo/video opportunity shows up!
And, as always, FRAPS follows in my wake..

mr chris don`t be shy ;) some times i run patrol with the ext. cam too :D , and its take me half year to learn how to do manuall target solution :doh: :88) , affter all i`am not a real sub commander, i am just a simple cook :D ;)

Hey, Steven Seagal was a cook in the movie "Under Siege"... Dont underestimate the power of the Chef! :up:

Im learning how to manual tdc using the great video guides made by dantedoc sorry if i spelled your name wrong mate.
Just a update on my second patrol which iam on now i have sunk 2 ships sp far one with the deck gun the other with 2 torps. More info in the second log when i get back to base and yes i have a few pics of the action:up: :arrgh!:
